Hidey Guns Around The House

But then you deprive yourself of that "Christmas Morning as a young child" feeling when you find a cherished Colt behind a freezer, about 1.5 years later...

Behind the freezer! That's genius. I must look there...

That happens to me a lot with fishing gear. Sometimes I clear out an area and I find a specialty rod that I have no memory of buying.
I have no problem imagining the same thing happens with guns if it wasn't for the license requirements preventing me from buying a few extra "just in case I ever need it", and forcing me to keep track of what I have for the 5 year renewals.

Except for the fact that they caught this guy from behind and unawares. I hate to keep pushing the point, but in my mind this was THE main reason I started this thread. It certainly speaks in favor of a four-legged, early warning system, if nothing else.

Then it makes no difference if he had fifty guns hidden in the house or none, does it?

If they got him then at least the wife/kids can shoot the fuckers instead of getting raped and murdered.

Dog wasn't part of the equation and while a warning system (maybe) that would be it depending on size and training of course...If they bark at any passing vehicle or human or animal then you just put it aside when he starts barking before you get clubbed.

Sportsman's Guide has been offering assorted clock & picture frame gun stashes. (including a monster 4x 8"x10" frame which will hide a full length AR...) If I weren't certain that my housemates would point them out to every visitor, I'd be putting them to use already.

I have a couple of Glocks, a Sig, a Colt, a Smith and Wesson, a Benelli for my hidey guns.

My house-guest while looking for the wine opener just found the XD 9mm I keep in the kitchen...

He's cool though.

Boy, I wish I could have been a fly on the wall with a good view of his face at THAT moment.

All I heard was "Badass!"

LOL. Better than "boom"!

When my niece and nephew come over to visit, my brother has to give us ample warning so we can go around and collect all the guns within arms reach (including the one inside the chair armrest).
